Hey. I’m just looking for some advice? I had an accident 10 years ago whilst living overseas. I slipped (sober - somebody had sprayed sun oil everywhere!) & hit my mouth which caused my tooth to break. Being young, miles from home on my own & in a panic I went with what the dentist advised to have 2 bridges as my tooth wasn’t repairable. Ive always looked after my teeth very well. Fast forward 10 years & I’ve got an unbearable pain, dentist said my teeth & gums looked fine but being pregnant he said it could be related & offered me antibiotics & to be fair the pain went away but 6 months later the pain has returned. I’ve had an x-ray which has showed an infection in my root canal under the bridge (caused by trauma to the nerve) and advised they would need to refer me to a private specialist. I’m now in such a panic as being a new Mum to baby 2 I don’t have a lot of spare money and I didn’t see this coming. I have a maternity exempt certificate but I’ve been told the NHS does not cover root canal treatment. I don’t know what to do, please be kind.
